What Is A Gift Hamper?

A gift hamper is a collection of gifts to celebrate a special occasion, beautifully displayed, and presented in a keepsake box. Gift hampers can be custom made to include a wide range of presents. Usually, the items chosen for a gift hamper will follow a theme. The gifts included can be made suitable for all occasions. The most popular gift baskets are those that include birthday gifts, Christmas treats, gourmet food and wine, pamper gifts, romantic Valentine’s Day gifts, and baby gift products. Traditional gift baskets for a wedding or baby shower include celebration gifts for the special occasion. While birthday hampers include personal items to suit the recipients’ personality. Mother’s Day gift baskets often include chocolates or pamper gifts, while Father’s Day hampers traditionally include beer or alcohol. A nice idea for a wellness or relaxation gift would be a pampering tea hamper.

Gift hampers can also be designed to celebrate other occasions such as a graduation, a job promotion, a contract settlement, a thank you gift basket, end of year teacher gift, or anniversary. Gift hampers are timeless, versatile, and unique gifts for any occasion. It’s popular to create your own personalised gift hamper with gifts to suit the recipient, although pre-designed gift baskets and hampers are a great source of inspiration. Pre-made hampers are often more convenient and more affordable.

The History of Gift Hampers

A hamper isn’t always a gift basket given as a present. A hamper can also refer to a large variety of basket items all stemming from the word’s Latin roots as a woven wicker container.

The history of hampers starts back in early medieval Europe. The word hamper comes from the medieval Latin anappus or hanappum. Traditionally, in medieval England and France, a willow basket called a hanapier was used to carry drinking vessels or wine goblets known as hanap. The Nuncius regis (or King's messenger) would carry valuables and important documents in a wicker case called a hanaper. In Victorian England, the tradition of carrying precious goods in a hamper expanded to include a hamper packed with food and supplies for a long journey. Travellers would present a hamper packed with clothes or food to their hosts when visiting.

It was also common to send clothes and food stored in a wicker basket to family. During the industrial revolution, packaged food and clothing sent long distance or via the railway to friends and family continued to be delivered in woven wicker hamper baskets. In addition to their use as gift baskets, wealthy families would create a simple hamper as care packages for the poor containing essential supplies. The word ‘hamper’ soon came to refer to a package of food and supplies given as a gift even if they were not packed in a wicker basket. Hampers in boxes or utilitarian crates were also given as care packages to soldiers during World War One. Loved ones at home would send gift hampers to injured soldiers or those on the front line as a way of sending their love with a few home comforts.

The woven wicker basket design also became a popular choice for picnic hampers. Being breathable, easily ventilated, and sturdy, the woven timber picnic hamper made it suitable for the transport of wine and food, hence the continued popularity of hinged cases used as picnic hampers.

What is the meaning of gift hamper?

A gift hamper is a special way to send your love from afar. No matter the occasion, sending a wrapped gift basket as a special gesture lets the recipient know you are thinking of them. While gift baskets are often sent to close family and friends as a personal gift, a gift hamper doesn’t have to be an intimate gift. A hamper is also a polite way to send your thanks, your condolences, or other best wishes. The meaning behind a gift hamper is unique to every occasion.

What are the best gift hampers?

The best gift hampers are chosen with your individual recipient in mind. They should suit the special occasion, include hamper items unique to your theme, be gorgeously wrapped, or presented in a gift box. The best gift baskets make the recipient feel extra special. Every item that they unwrap from within their gift box should make them say ‘wow’!

What is in a hamper?

A hamper should be a complete gift including consumable gift products to use as well as something special to keep as a memento for a special event. You should choose only the finest products in a gift basket for any occasion. If choosing a food hamper, all the products should pair well together. For a pampering beauty hamper or romantic hamper, the gift items should work together to create a special mood.

What should you not put in a gift basket?

You should never include unappealing items just to stuff or pad out your hamper. Every item should be chosen to impress. Don’t include random items that don’t match the overall theme or mood that you are trying to create with your special gift. It’s also a good idea to avoid regular items that are commonly available at the supermarket. Perishable items that will quickly expire should also not be put in a gift basket.

Is it cheaper to make your own gift hamper?

If you’re giving a luxury gift basket, it’s generally not cheaper to make your own gift hamper. Buying a selection of matching themed items curated by gift hamper experts from Australia’s luxury brands ensures you get a better deal than if you purchased each item separately. As a cheap alternative, you can make a functional gift basket for a friend from a re-usable container and with their favourite items. While it’s no cheaper than if your friend purchased for themselves, it’s the thought that counts when you just want to surprise them with an unexpected gift.

How to choose a good gift hamper?

To give the best hamper, start by narrowing down the search according to hamper recipient and occasion. Often, it helps to choose one particular item that you know the recipient will love. Perhaps that’s a bottle of champagne, a large selection of chocolates, spicy mixed nuts, or a luxury satin robe. Once you have chosen the feature item of your gift hamper, you can browse to find the best selection of matching gifts to impress and other special treats they’ll love. IGift® specialises in creating scrumptious food gift baskets filled with Australian artisan produce, delicious treats, and gourmet food and wine. Plus our beauty, skincare, and pamper hampers offer you a world of choice to spoil your loved ones.
